AMURG. Romanian Cremation Association

Having in my mind the idea that in a very short time Amurg. Romanian Cremation Association will be a functional structure for sustaining and promoting cremation in Romania I put here a picture of the interwar application for accesion for anyone to become member of Cenusa. Romanian Cremation Society (1937). This is a very important piece of what means a history of cremation in Romania and a very strong argument for us to restore the tradition of the interwar romanian cremationists.

Is it necessary a Romanian Cremation Society for sustaining and popularization this pracitce of disposal of the body in Romania?

”Our soul is just an urn where we close, once and for all, the ashes of our lost passions”

Death, a subject which invites reflection and analysis par excellence, through the many mutations it produces, is a particular subject matter, often wrongfully given a secondary place among the scientific research interests. For this reason in particular, death cannot be considered the prerogative of just one science, although some may take a special interest in the topic. We cannot describe, understand, explain or come up with solutions to the reality of death without the joint effort of History, Philosophy, Sociology, Psychology, Medicine or Literature.
